First impressions from the movie trailer:It seems very weak, sluggish, colorful and really , edulcorated and shallow.Those people appear not to be talented enough to equal the animated movie :most of the scenes in this trailer seems to be under the animés level, but It's always fun to see whites aping asians by disguising as them.

Everyone keeps bringing up The Last Airbender and Dragonball, but let's be honest, changing the race of the characters would not have saved the movie. (I mean, even Japanese live action renditions of anime tend to suck.)

So instead of fixating on two terrible examples, maybe you should see how Americans have re-contextualized Japanese works for Hollywood in movies like Edge of Tomorrow, Black Swan, or Chronicle.

I'm gonna watch this when it comes out, even though I don't think it's gonna be all that good. If only Carrie-Anne Moss was about 10-15 years younger than she is now, she would've been perfect cast for the major.

This looks shitty, plain and simple. If you're defending it, you have no allegiance to the original manga or the 1995 movie. That's fine, but don't go around acting like we fans aren't allowed to criticize the fuck out of it. This is a soulless shell (no puns here) of a timeless masterpiece and will be remembered as such.

And yeah before I'm done, I'll say it. I'm pretty pissed by the fact that there will be no nudity in this. I swear it's not because of I want to see her titties, as anyone can find that with a quick google search, but one of the themes of the original is the evolution of gender identity and also the evolution from sexual reproduction to mechanical, digital reproduction. With a strict western culture already overthrowing this work, censorship of artistic nudity will become a prevalent priority of this and who knows what else they'll throw out of the artist's original work. I'm already seeing a different atmosphere form the original altogether going on.

The only good to come of this, will be those who go back to see the original after watching this shitshow.
